Understanding Burnout: The Silent Epidemic


A Closer Look at Burnout

Burnout isn't just a buzzword; it's a serious issue that creeps up when stress goes unchecked. It's like your body and mind collectively hitting a wall, saying, "Enough is enough!" Burnout manifests as a deep sense of exhaustion and disconnection, often resulting from long-term, unresolved stress. It’s more than just feeling tired; it’s feeling overwhelmed and emotionally drained, as if you’re constantly running on empty. Burnout is a state I'm intimately familiar with, having experienced it alongside diagnoses of Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia. This firsthand experience with burnout, where your mind and body hit their limits, gives me a unique understanding of its profound impact.

Burnout is usually the result of stress left unaddressed.


Recognising the Signs of Burnout

Burnout often shows up in ways we might not immediately recognise:

  • A constant feeling of tiredness or emotional exhaustion.

  • Feeling stuck, helpless, or defeated.

  • Viewing life through a lens of negativity.

  • Self-doubt and a harsh inner critic.

  • Procrastination and a sluggish approach to tasks.

  • Overwhelm from an endless to-do list.
